The spin is an illustration: the model turns at 1/600 of the no-load speed, and it is a generic 22.6-6.6 motor drawn from RCinPower’s published sizes, not its exact design. No-load speed is KV × 22.2 V, a nominal pack for this version. RCinPower publishes no bench data for it.

Inside the motor
A brushless outrunner: the coils stand still in the middle and the magnets spin around them. From the top down:
- Shaft. 4 mm hollow; 5 mm across the thread, which stands 12.5 mm above the bell. (RCinPower spec sheet, RCinPower spec sheet (mirror))
- Stator. The coils are wound on a stack of thin steel laminations: 22.6 × 6.6 mm (RCinPower names the size 22.6-6.6). (RCinPower spec sheet)
- Base. 4 × M3 holes, opposite holes 16 mm apart (16 × 16) (the M3 is legible only in the full-size sheet (S4)). (RCinPower spec sheet (mirror))
How fast it spins
KV is the motor’s no-load speed per volt. With nothing on the shaft, the 2160KV version reaches about these speeds; a prop loads the motor and brings it down, typically to around 70–75% of these figures at full throttle.
| Battery | Volts | No-load rpm (KV × V) | Electrical frequency | ESC steps per second |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4S nominal | 14.8 | 31,968 | 3,730 Hz | 22,378 |
| 4S full | 16.8 | 36,288 | 4,234 Hz | 25,402 |
| 6S nominal | 22.2 | 47,952 | 5,594 Hz | 33,566 |
| 6S full | 25.2 | 54,432 | 6,350 Hz | 38,102 |
A 14-pole rotor has 7 pole pairs, so every turn of the shaft is 7 electrical cycles, and a six-step ESC switches the phases 42 times per turn.
About the 3D model
A generic outrunner drawn from RCinPower’s published sizes: the 22.6 × 6.6 mm stator, 27.6 mm bell, 18.1 mm height, 5 mm shaft, 16 mm mounting circle and 12 teeth and 14 magnets. Anything RCinPower doesn’t publish is typical for a motor this size, and the bell’s spoked top, the base and the inside are a generic design, not this motor’s. The colours are read off the maker’s product photos. There are no logos or markings: it is our drawing, not the maker’s.
